ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), also known as Lou Gehrigs disease, is a progressive disease of the motor neurons (nerve cells that control the skeletal muscles). As motor neurons are affected, gradual weakness, atrophy, and paralysis of the skeletal muscles occur.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurological disease that causes muscle weakness and gradually impacts on the functioning of the body, leading to eventual death. It is also referred to as motor neuron disease or Lou Gehrig's disease, named after the famous baseball player who had the condition.LS belongs to a group of diseases called motor neuron diseases. It is a disease that attacks the nerve cells that are used in voluntary muscle actions; actions that we can control such as those in the arms, face and legs. 4.
